AquaMat Capillary Mat Systems

AquaMat Capillary Mat Systems provide consistent, bottom-up irrigation for seedlings, clones, nursery pots, and vegetative plants. The mat distributes water across its surface so compatible containers can absorb moisture from below as plants need it. Choose the mat size, irrigation-control method, and container option that fit your growing space. Available configurations support 2×4, 3×3, 4×4, and 4×8 ft areas. AquaMat promotes even hydration, improved soil aeration, and rapid vegetative growth while reducing hand watering. Automated configurations use a Blumat sensor to respond directly to moisture conditions—without timers, programming, or electricity. How It Works ＋ Water enters the AquaMat and spreads across the capillary surface. Containers with bottom openings sit directly on the mat and absorb water from below, allowing moisture to move upward through the growing media. With a Blumat control option, the ceramic sensor responds continuously to moisture conditions and opens or closes the water supply automatically. The surface-mounted sensor reads the mat directly; the preset 5" sensor uses a soil-filled pilot container to regulate the mat. Mat Size Options ＋ 2×4 ft — Compact propagation or vegetative area 3×3 ft — Square grow-tent or nursery layout 4×4 ft — Full 4×4 grow-tent footprint 4×8 ft — Large propagation, nursery, or vegetative area Irrigation Control Options ＋ Preset 5" Blumat Sensor — Sits in a soil-filled pilot container and regulates flow according to root-zone moisture. Best for pots approximately 4" or larger. Surface-Mounted Blumat — Uses a bell-shaped ceramic base that sits directly on the mat and controls moisture across the capillary surface. Ideal for cell trays and small containers. No Sensor — Choose this option when you plan to water the mat manually or supply your own controls. Irrigation fittings are not included with this selection. Container Options ＋ Grassroots 1-Gallon Bottomless Sleeves — Open-bottom containers that maximize contact with the mat, improve aeration, and simplify transplanting. Includes 10 for 2×4, 20 for 3×3 or 4×4, and 40 for 4×8. Non-Woven Nursery Pots — Biodegradable, tear-resistant fabric containers that allow roots to grow through the sides and bottom. Includes 50 with any mat size. None — Use your own containers. Choose pots, trays, or bags with drainage openings positioned flush against the mat. What's Included ＋ AquaMat capillary mat sized for your selected growing area Blumat irrigation control components when a sensor option is selected Grassroots bottomless sleeves or non-woven nursery pots when a container option is selected What You'll Also Need ＋ Automated AquaMat configurations require an 8mm supply line and a compatible water source: 8mm supply line running from the water source to the Blumat control Gravity reservoir with an 8mm bulkhead connection, positioned high enough to provide reliable operating pressure Pressurized source such as a hose bib or pump, paired with a Blumat-compatible pressure reducer The water source, main supply line, pump, hose connection, and pressure reducer are sold separately. Setup Notes ＋ Install the mat on a clean, level surface so water can spread evenly. Place containers directly against the mat with no air gap beneath them. Use containers with bottom openings that allow the growing media or roots to contact the capillary surface. Top-water newly placed containers until moisture contact is established between the growing media and the mat. Frequently Asked Questions ＋ What is an AquaMat capillary mat system? It is a bottom-watering system that spreads water across a capillary mat so compatible containers can absorb moisture from below. Which Blumat control should I choose? Choose the preset 5" sensor for soil-filled pots approximately 4" or larger. Choose the surface-mounted Blumat for cell trays, small containers, or when you want the sensor to read the mat directly. Can I use my own pots? Yes. Select “None” for the container option and use pots, trays, or fabric bags with openings that sit flush against the mat. Can AquaMat run from gravity or pressure? Yes. Automated configurations can run from a properly elevated gravity reservoir or a pressurized source fitted with a compatible pressure reducer. What is sold separately? The main 8mm supply line and water-source components are sold separately. Build a complete irrigation system · Preset Blumat setup instructions

Strong, Breathable, and Root-FriendlyGive your clones and seedlings the best start with our 25-pack of durable fabric nursery bags. Perfect for seed starting, clone propagation, and germination projects, these bags encourage stronger, healthier root systems. Made from tear-resistant, biodegradable fabric, each pouch is tough enough for everyday use yet naturally breaks down over time. The breathable material lets roots grow through and allows water to drain easily, preventing overwatering while reducing transplant shock. The sleek black design insulates soil and shields young plants from harsh sunlight, helping them thrive from the very beginning. Packaged flat for easy storage, each bag quickly unfolds into a sturdy, portable grow container ready to fill with soil. 5.7" X 12" flat, 5.7" x 9.45" with soil (just fold down sides if less potting mix used)ApplicationsThese versatile nursery bags make starting plants simple and stress-free. Ideal for seed germination, clone propagation, and early growth, they allow you to transplant directly into larger soil or garden beds without removing the bag—minimizing root disturbance and boosting survival rates. Acting as natural root trainers, they encourage stronger, more fibrous root systems for maximum nutrient uptake. Perfect for starting vegetables, herbs, flowers, and trees, they’re trusted  and used in home gardens, greenhouses, dispensaries, and large-scale agricultural projects alike.

A pack of nursery bags designed for germination applications like seed starting and clone propagation to promote healthier root structures. Each durable fabric root pouch is tear-resistant to withstand rough handling and is biodegradable, decomposing over various time periods based on environmental conditions. Its permeability allows for your plant’s roots to penetrate and for moisture to pass through to prevent overwatering. In addition, the black appearance insulates the soil while protecting your seedlings from harsh sunlight. The nursery bag’s durable build strengthens its capacity to hold soil while reducing the impact of transplant shock and improving your plant’s survival rate. Comes packaged envelope-style that opens to create a portable grow bag soil container.ApplicationsThese seedling bags are primarily used in germination and propagation to start seeds and to cultivate clones. You can quickly and easily transplant your potted plants into larger bodies of soil without having to remove the nursery bags. They are also utilized as root trainers to facilitate a wider, more complex root structure to maximize nutrient intake. Most used to grow fruits, vegetables, flowers, and trees for many agricultural projects.
